Frequently asked questions

How do I get the best prices on a Dublin National car rental?

CarRentals.com always tries to get you the lowest rates, no matter when you reserve your car. But reserving your car ahead of your trip can help you save even more. Make sure to check the mileage policy and keeping it to one driver will reduce your expense.

Do I need to bring anything special when I get my rental car in Dublin?

Make sure to carry with you credit card, as well as your driver's license.

What is the minimum age to rent a car in Dublin?

National's minimum age to rent a car in Dublin is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles (luxury, SUVs, etc.), may have an added fee if you are under 25. Take time to go over National's policy to know if there is an additional cost before you book.

Is there a particular vehicle I should get for my trip to Dublin?

That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what you'll be doing when you visit Dublin. Economy or compact vehicles are great for short commutes and are easier to park. If you are traveling with family or friends, then a sedan or SUV is going to have more room and offer a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a dash of luxury on their Dublin trip can choose a higher-end car model like a Mercedes C-Class or Audi A4 or similar.

Do I need insurance when I rent a car in Ireland?

In Ireland you do need to have insurance before you rent a car from National. Many major credit card issuers (MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover) typically provide some coverage. But many of them have limitations, such as not covering large vehicles, like trucks or SUVs. Make sure to find out by calling your credit card company to find out what kind of coverage is offered before you head to Dublin. Otherwise, as a United States citizen, you can purchase Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout.

Do I need to pay a deposit when I book my National car rental?

National does require a deposit when you reserve your rental car. National will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your rental for your trip to Dublin. Please note that the deposit can vary greatly depending on the make and model of the car.

Do I have to return my National rental with a full tank?

At CarRentals.com, we advise a full tank policy. You pick up your National rental with a full tank, and you will want to refuel up to the amount you picked the car up with. To avoid any added expenses, it is best to find a gas station before you return the car to National. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Do I need unlimited miles when I rent a car in Dublin?

Dublin definitely has its charms, but you may want to hit the road after you've checked off all the activities in Dublin.

Does National offer one-way rentals in Dublin?

National typically offers one-way rentals. You may find it more convenient to return your vehicle at a different National. However, there is typically an additional charge when you choose one-way.
